Don Foster signs EDM 2036 - ALICE PYNE AND STEM CELL DONATION

Don Foster MP has signed EDM 2036 on Ulverston’s Alice Pyne and stem cell donations. The EDM reads:

That this House notes that about 1,600 patients in the UK are currently in need of a potentially life-saving stem cell transplant; commends Ulverston’s Alice Pyne for raising public awareness of the need for more people to join the stem cell donor register; welcomes the Government’s investment of 4 million in the first year of the UK Stem Cell Strategic Forum plan to increase the availability of stem cells for transplant; and calls on the young people of Britain, particularly healthy men between the ages of 18 and 30 years, to join the stem cell donor register.
